GTK+ is LGPL licensed which means that you can link it against a non free software application. If you'd sell your software and yet wouldn't offer LGPL or GPL licensed copies of the code, your application wont be free software. But for GTK+ that's fine. If you do want to donate money, the best place to start is here: http://www.gnome.org/friends/ Note that this doesn't apply for libraries in the GNOME platform that are GPL. Only for LGPL licensed ones. Most libraries in the GNOME platform are LGPL licensed, though. Could you explain me want I must do? You can just sell your application. -- Philip Van Hoof, freelance software developer home: me at pvanhoof dot be gnome: pvanhoof at gnome dot org http://pvanhoof.be/blog http://codeminded.be ___ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list

Re: Supporting GTK+
Hi Olivier, GTK+ is licenced under the LGPL. If you modify GTK+ itself for your application, then those modifications fall under the same licence. The licence does not apply to any applications using GTK+ though. About your money question, there is no royalties requirement at all. You are free to do as you wish (and you may wish to donate some of the returns to the GNOME Foundation, of course). But the licence does not require you to have any particular pricing policy - you are free in this matter. Cheers, Dave.

No, there is no requirement to do that. A monthly donation is of course welcome.
